I’m not Irish, but like most people I look forward to celebrating St. Patrick’s Day. To be sure, I’ll be wearing green, eating corned beef and cabbage, having a Guinness or two and slinging a lot of blarney on the evening of March 17. ...

All right, I’m sentimental. I look forward to Valentine’s Day, to flowers, candy and fancy cards. I recall third grade in the 1950s, buying a sack of Valentine’s Day cards, writing on each one, slipping them into the girls’ desks and wondering how many...
